The attachments are stripped by the email system so you will need to 
post the file somewhere and post the link. Also, advise us your OS.

Occasionally docx files will not open properly. This caused by MS using 
an implementation that is close but completely compliant to ODF 
standards. I have personally seen occasional problems with msox formats 
with a good LO install.

You have three options:
1 Use a zip utility to get the actual xml file to open. docx and ODF 
files are actually archives and both can be "opened" using a zip 
utility. You may need to change the extension to *.zip.
2 Try LO 3.5.0, normally handling of docx files improves with later 
releases.
3 Open the file with MSO and save to ODF.
